Plot: + Sponsored by: Johnson's Wax. The first show of the season. Martha Tilton sings, Gildersleeve announces he's moving to Summerfield, it's his last appearance on the show as a regular. Fibber's trip to Alaska. Fibber McGee & Molly was first broadcast in 1935 and ran in a variety of formats until the final broadcast in 1956. Jim and Marian Jordan played Fibber and his wife Molly in this hilarious domestic comedy. It was written and created by Don Quinn who had also written Smackout. The show made good use of running gags. Probably the best remembered is McGee’s junk-filled closet, which always crashed down on anyone that happened to open the door. Fibber is good, clean entertainment that despite being well over half a century old still has the ability to make you chuckle.

At the end of the 9/30/1941 episode of Fibber McGee (they'd returned from a summer vacation in Alaska), Jim and Marion Jordan step out of character to wish Harold Perry all the best "in his new Sunday afternoon show, 'The Great Gildersleeve.'" and thereby make history, by launching the first spinoff from a radio series.

They were also responsible for the second spin-off series too. Because Marlin Hurt's Beulah was also spun-off into his own series. But he died of a sudden heart attack before the radio program really had a chance to get going.

Spinoffs were scarce indeed in radio sitcoms, but they made hay with the concept by the 60s and 70s! Some were classics in their own right, some disasters.
